It's funny — while I was writing that article, I initially included that she won the Malta Businesswoman of the Year Award, then went looking for a better source and ended up removing it because I couldn't find one, and not even realizing that it wasn't the same person until your edit just now.

Just noted today that Jessie Kenney was categorised in WikiProject Criminal Biography https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Jessie_Kenney&diff=next&oldid=1006334363
Looking at this category there is not a section for political prisoners treated as criminals or UK suffragettes specifically?
But if Jessie Kenney is categorised that way, should her family and the rest of the Eagle House (suffragette's rest) suffragettes or the Holloway brooch and Hunger Strike Medal recipients be in this category too?
For consistency and connecting with the treatment of women's suffrage prisoners??
I am happy to help categorising articles for the women imprisoned if it is needed. Kaybeesquared (talk) 10:59, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your recent 'thank yous' for work I did some time ago (eleven years!). It reminds me that the footprints one leaves on Wikipedia and Commons are basically indelible, but also that a helpful edit can be appreciated long afterwards. I have not been as active on Wikipedia as I once was for two reasons - other projects have gotten in the way and also a sense that Wikipedia is getting more bureaucratic than it was. Maybe that is not fair. Maybe it is that the rules it has always had are simply being enforced with more rigour now. I thinking of DYK, for example, which was a lot simpler to do in the past. I understand why the process is more cumbersome but I wonder whether really interesting stuff gets passed over because editors find it too exhausting to follow the procedures. I also had an edit reverted recently (Lawnchair Larry) because it was seen as original research. That really turned me off. I though it helped to understand the guy; put his adventure into context. I chose not to pursue the argument, because I had also added the information to the general article on cluster ballooning, where it is in a safer place. So, I will continue to do the odd edit, adding value from time to time, but I am generally treading softly these days. Thank you again, and for all that you do as both an editor and administrator.

Hi Roger. 6 years, 4 months, 4 days ago, you left a message on my talkpage regarding Wikimania 2015 submission. My turn. The deadline for Wikimania Virtual 2021 submissions is in 3 days. Yes, short notice, my bad, but it just dawned on me to give it some thought. Would you be interested in doing a round-table conversation with me (and perhaps others if there's interest) regarding 'moving the needle' at Women in Red? As usual, the door is open; you don't have to knock. --Rosiestep (talk) 16:13, 15 June 2021 (UTC) Sure I will push the door open :-) ~2323 days later to submission - need input or just turn up?

Hello! Your submission of Gemma Collis-McCann at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) at your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. I actually found your written article very interesting, but it does, in my opinion, require quite a bit of expansion in order to get a 'yes' from me for inclusion in WP:DYK. If expanded and meets the criteria for WP:GA, I'd be happy to support. Textualism (talk) 11:31, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
Hi, apologies if I did cause any offence on my recent edit of Gemma Collis-McCann, switching from 'was' to 'is', the rest of the sentence didn't end up making sense, but wanted to convey in the first paragraph that she's alive. I realise the article is new and improving. I'll step away and hope no hard feelings. All the best, Textualism (talk) 11:59, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Hi, Victuallers. First, I just wanted to thank you for the many times you've been kind enough to offer guidance or a morale boost to me re: the bios I've created for Women in Red. Wikipedia can be a bruising place for anyone researching and writing new articles, regardless of their level of editing experience on/off Wikipedia, and I just wanted to let you know that your input has helped. Second, I received an email alert letting me know that Eliza Kennedy Smith, one of the most recent bios that I created for WiR, was nominated for a DYK, which was heartening news. Unfortunately, when I checked the nomination data, I noticed something that seems odd. A second Wikipedian was listed as having created the bio with me, which is incorrect. I researched, wrote, and posted the bio myself, and was in the middle of editing it to bring it up to C-class or better when the other individual began editing it. Since, I'm not sure what the process is for DYK, I wanted to reach out to ask you if it's a normal procedure for a DYK nomination to list an article editor as a creator if he/she/they didn't actually create the article? Thanks in advance for your response. 47thPennVols (talk) 22:56, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

Hello! I did have one idea for a possible US partner, namely a new college student group at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts. User AlwaysInRed recently sent some kind thank you notes to WiR and related editathons mentioning that their group would be using the redlists for their new group’s monthly meetups at the WPI Library and online, described at their grant proposal here. Perhaps they would be interested in serving as a base for an online US event, especially given their school’s historical focus on STEM? (For press it would be a nice fit.) As they are brand-new, I am picturing a need for participation by some “old hands” :-) but perhaps collaborating would feel more feasible to some who don’t feel up to taking it on alone. Just an idea—in the spirit of brainstorming! Innisfree987 (talk) 23:02, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

Hi! I love your work and I just started using QRpedia in Croatia. I noticed that message that was given to people who have unsupported contente languages on QRpedia URL resolution, does not include link to other available languages and I wonder if you could maybe add that sometimes soon? Thank you in advance! --Zblace (talk) 18:54, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
Hi @Zblace: do tell me more about your use of QRpediain Croatia. Is Serbian the first language, are you using it for a Wikitown or a GLAM? Have you made the press? Links to other languages you say - that depends, which language?. We had some issues with Welsh in the early days as Android didnt recognise it as a language and others can be quite long when they are using a Latin alphabet. I have thoughts about how to solve this but it would require us to develop a QRpedia 2.0 which would be couple of weeks of work.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did.

Yes, I created both of them. For some reason, the translation template kept one version of the article before I published the second one (I'm using different browsers on different PC's, home/office). They should be merged, Des Cabrils is the more current version of the article. Issue is that the "station" goes by both names; it's not a big place so I assume the locals just call it Cabrils. I think I'm familiar with merging articles, let me see and I'll get back to you here in a bit. Oaktree b (talk) 19:56, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi, hope you're well. I'm drafting an article on the Caslon type foundry and am thinking about how it can connect to the Elizabeth Caslon article. Just to warn you that the typeface you show in the article was actually commissioned by the second Elizabeth Caslon (née Rowe), this is explained by Hansard in Typographica on page 352 and Reed-Johnson on page 247. The NYPL dates the Caslon specimen 1785 but this is a confusion as it's a 1785 specimen bound up with later sheets; the Eliz. Caslon's New Pica sheet is one of these. This is explained by James Mosley in his book on British type specimens on page 27. He dates it to 1796-9, so does Paul Barnes.
My draft is at Draft:Caslon type foundry, I'm hoping to have it finished over Christmas. Feedback welcomed! Blythwood (talk) 22:58, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

John Vanderlyn, Ariadne Asleep on the Island of Naxos (c.1812), Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts |
Best wishes for a safe, healthy and prosperous 2022. | |
Thank you for your contributions toward making Wikipedia a better and more accurate place. BoringHistoryGuy (talk) 20:34, 26 December 2021 (UTC) Moral lesson: John Vanderlyn was an American painter who studied in Paris, and his life-sized Ariadne Asleep on the Island of Naxos was one of the first large nudes exhibited in the United States. Peddling the poison as well as the cure, this overtly sensuous work was presented to the public as a moral lesson on the consequences of lascivious behavior. Visible in the distance is the ship of Princess Ariadne's secret lover, Theseus, for whom she has betrayed her people by helping him to escape the Labyrinth and slay the Minotaur. Ariadne's bliss will come to an end when she awakens from her post-coital reverie, only to discover that the faithless Theseus has sailed away without her. |

Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

I noticed in your revison dated 09:17,10 January 2022 of the page on Karen Ferguson, you inserted the phrase "their (sic) were plans to reduce the minimum pensions guarenteed (sic) to pensioners."
"Guaranteed minimum pensions" is a legal concept in the UK that doesn't exist per se in the United States. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 addresses issues such as how corporations must fund their pension funds, but it doesn't contain any requirements for pension payment amounts, or even any requirement for employers to provide pensions at all.
Did you have a source for this change, or was it an assumption on your part? I don't mean this as a personal attack, by the way; my only interest is in making the article as accurate as possible.

Hellos I've put Olive Morris up for FAC and sadly had to take away two photos before doing so because the National Archives seem to have messed up their uploads (you can read the saga at the peer review). (Where?) I thought I'd drop you a line because you are good at finding pix and I see the image we have of Olive herself was uploaded by you. Can you let me know if you know any more about the provenance of that one? Probably not right, it seems there is a real dearth of available pics of British Black Power women activists from the 1970s like Liz Obi, Elouise Edwards, Stella Dadzie, Altheia Jones-LeCointe, Beverley Bryan and so on.

Hi Victuallers. I've had a couple of comments on this DYK that I've found a bit frustrating and I was wondering if you could please look and advise me? The hook is not a double-negative as claimed, and I think the article copy is fine (have clarified the lead just to be sure, and removed a vague tag that imo was unnecessary). The expansion to me is evident even with the blanking of the history, and my understanding that was a change from redirect to article constituted an expansion rather than new article in terms of DYK rules (though very happy to be corrected and change this on the nomination, it just feels a bit like that shouldn't be a barrier because either way it meets the criteria of being new/bigger. Would be very grateful if you could let me know what I could do to make this work better! Zeromonk (talk) 09:46, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

Just a reminder that people are not filed directly in Category:Politicians if they're already filed in one or more subcategories, such as Category:Members of the National Assembly of Ecuador. The world has had hundreds of thousands, possibly even well into the millions, of politicians throughout history — so it's not useful for the parent category Category:Politicians to be a one-stop list of everybody on earth who was ever in politics, and instead all politicians are subcategorized by nationality and/or role while Category:Politicians is supposed to only parent the subcategories, while not directly containing any individual people itself.

How come the wrong Sofia Sanchez was linked in today's DYK? Is there any chance of re-running with the correct Sofía Sánchez (politician)? Somehow a correction needs to be made, perhaps with an apology, as the image did not correspond to the person linked. (cc theleekycauldron)--Ipigott (talk) 11:46, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
I now see Tbhotch moved the page. Not sure how to deal with this. Maybe the DYK ran correctly but the DYK archive certainly needs attention.--Ipigott (talk) 12:41, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for spotting this Ipigott. We did get some picky points raised when it was on the main page so it must have been accessible to some. One of the points was about her name lacking an accent which is may be the reason it was moved. The stats should tell us how many saw it and with what name (I think).

Hello! Your submission of Template:Did you know nominations/Pooja Sharma (entrepreneur) at the Did You Know nominations page is not complete; if you would like to continue, please link the nomination to the nominations page as described in step 3 of the nomination procedure.

@Victuallers and theleekycauldron: I wanted to follow up on yesterday's Errors in "Did you know ..." discussion, which I didn't get a chance to reply to before it got deleted. My request was not about fixing the hyperlink in the source article. In fact, had you checked the article in question, you would have noticed that I had already fixed that hyperlink in the source article a few minutes before asking my question (Special:Diff/1093107824). Had I needed help to edit the Sofía Sánchez article itself, I would have of course posted on the relevant talk page. My request was to change the hyperlink in the hook itself, which I understand only administrators can do. Is there a reason why you both suggested that I could have done that myself? Or did you just not notice that the bad hyperlink was in the hook? --JECE (talk) 19:34, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
The rephrasing part of DYK is out of hand. I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw this at ERRORS. I have no idea why a rewording and not an error was brought up there, especially when Gerda's hook was completely fine. SL93 (talk) 09:04, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for thanking me ;-) about the new Angela Fan page. Someone placed the page on WP:AfD Would you mind having a look and giving your opinion on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Angela_Fan? Best, simon (talk) 16:44, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
I did have a look, I'm not too keen on getting involved at AfD, I'm more interested in improving the article. I think I'm pretty neat the epicentre of fixing the Wikipedia gender gap. I worry that the sources are receptive to the techology but the Wikipedia article seems to imply that the ambitions of the work are the same as the achievement. The source I looked said that historically Wiki articles continued and failed to remove gender bias it was a huge problem. And it is and that the translations offered might HELP human editors fix the problem. The claims made here seem to be a bit journalistic - can you really imagine that an AI tool is going to translate an article about a native American woman from Arabic into Chinese AND also fix the gender bias in the text? The cultural mismatches would be enormous eben if the translation was perfect .... and none of the sources imply that the translation between unusual languages is anything much better that a good draft. Now on the subject of improvent. The lede should explain why this person is important. What is notable about "Angela Fan is a research scientist at Meta AI in Paris focusing on machine translation". That is not notable. Tell the reader why she is notable. Did she invent machine translation? Is the AI that converts between 200 languages all her work and is it the first that can do this? Can it do this? Can it really remove bias in the text, how on earth does it do that? How many Wikipedia articles can it publish without human intervention per day. Has women in red decided to fold/ base all their new work on this model etc because the problem is now solved? Victuallers (talk) 20:53, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
Just a point. Creating drafts of articles is a non-problem - we could easily create 100,000 drafts of missing notable women... the problem is that that everyone of them would need to be checked/rewritten by a human editor. If this could be measurably improved then that would be amazing. However I only read that this is an aspiration (a very worthy one of course) in the sources. Is there any evidence that her approach will make a big difference? Being a bit better is expected but its not notable. I would have thought that Women in Red would be a aware of amazing new tools - we have seen articles about them, but no one has said (that I know) that a new AI tool is better. Of course this is my OR - it could be that you can point to sources that do show/claim improvements to this process. I do hope so. Obviously being able to translate (even badly) between Catalan and Navajo would be remarkable but is that the claim? Victuallers (talk) 12:05, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi. In the Ada Lovelace page Revision as of 10:13, 16 September 2021, you changed "Lady Byron" to "mathematician Lady Byron". Do you have a source for the claim that Lady Byron was a mathematician? It seems generally accepted that she studied mathematics as well as other subjects and that she encouraged Ada Lovelace to study mathematics, but I've not seen any claim that Lady Byron was herself a mathematician other than an unsourced edit by Shreeveen to the Lady Byron wikipedia page in Revision as of 04:54, 8 June 2019. This lengthy description of her life makes no mention of it: https://campuspress.uwl.ac.uk/uwlarchives/2021/08/31/445/ 86.159.18.215 (talk) 11:37, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
Ada Lovelace wrote and published mathematics. Her mother Lady Byron studied with a tutor. Unless there's more evidence of Lady Byron's mathematical activities, I don't think it is reasonable to put them both in the same category of mathematician. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.159.18.215 (talk) 12:21, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Dear Victuallers, administrator, Vanguard Editor, >140000 edits. Thank you very much for your work on the article Eleanor Butler, Countess of Desmond. Excellent. You rightly say she lived at Askeaton Castle, which was probably the normal seat for most of the earls of Desmond, but of course only one of many Desmond castles. Askeaton Castle is on an island in the River Deel in the town of Askeaton (I suspect the castle predates the town) in the County Limerick, Ireland. Somehow you linked Akeaton castle to Askerton Castle, which is in England and has never belonged to the Desmonds. The talk page maintains Eleanor is alive (living=y)???? With many thanks and best regards, Johannes Schade (talk) 07:49, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

On 23 October 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Lucy de László, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that portraits of Lucy de László with a violin (one portrait pictured), painted by her husband, are recognised as some of the first examples of portraiture to include womens' talents in them? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Lucy de László. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Lucy de László), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi there. Don't know if we've ever spoken before, but I've seen your name quite frequently. Thanks for all the effort you put into the project. I got a message from an editor on my talk page, see ???error??, and when I went to take a look at the cat, I saw that you had created it. I'm not really someone who spends a bunch of time in categories, but in looking at several of the others in this, that editor seems to have a point. But wanted to get your take. Thanks.

Thanks for uploading File:Jessie Beatrice Kitson mayor.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
((Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>))
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ricky81682 (talk) 07:58, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

Thanks, Roger, for your additions to this page. It's always good to see your interest in the articles I create but I usually start with what becomes the lead to longer articles. Perhaps it is a mistake to start new articles in article space rather than in draft form but I find it rather a nuisance to have to move things around and I usually continue editing within the next 24 hours. I'm now in the process of expanding this one and hope to bring it up to at least start class by the end of the day. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 11:46, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

I am not a native speaker, but some phrases seem to be controversial, eg. Death and legacy. Xx236 (talk) 13:02, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sharon Wardle until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.
Uhooep (talk) 20:16, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
Victuallers, I entirely agree with you about the notability of ambassadors. It is patently ridiculous that they are not considered to be inherently notable. But sadly the deletionists are taking over at AfD and it seems that there's little those of us who think this way can do about it. They just enjoy deleting the work of others, crow about their successes in doing it, and those of us who have the backbone to stand up to them (not many of us, unfortunately) are shouted down, mocked, sneered at and even threatened with "sanctions" (such as losing admin status - I have been threatened with this personally for stating an opinion at AfD) for "going against Wikipedia policy". The subject of inherent notability is a losing battle and one that I have largely given up on, as I know I just won't get the support. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:15, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
Hi Victuallers, I hope 2023 is starting off well for you!

I found this book Almanacco della donna Italiana (in Italian). Florence, Italy: R. Bemporad & Figlio. 1925 that has a ton of photos in it. I've uploaded Virginia Tango Piatti and Laura Orvieto, but it occurs to me that perhaps there is a way to download the whole book and extract the photos? I have zero clue how to do that, but thought that perhaps you would and then it would give us a bunch of images for our Mediterranean editathon next month. No worries if you are too busy, but I know that like me, you believe in the power of the picture. SusunW (talk) 18:05, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Reposting very closely paraphrased copyrighted text after it has been already explained here is disruptive. I hope this is a one-off and we don't need to open a CCI for your many contributions, if this is the lack of care you show in avoiding copyright violations. Fram (talk) 14:46, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
And yet you succeeded in posting the copyvio for a third time to the mainspace, before finally correcting it? Perhaps you can at least now delete the drafts and revdel the first two versions of the current page to hide the copyvio? And I sure hope that was the only part you copied from elsewhere instead of writing your own article. Fram (talk) 14:54, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
I suggest you refer this matter to a third party, it is obviously a matter of great concern to you. If you intend to open a CCI then do it. You are not encouraging co-operation with your requests. Victuallers (talk) 15:09, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

... for taking part in the Editatona of the Helga de Alvear Museum.
Best regards! Mentxuwiki (talk) 21:28, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
Thanks, Roger, for your kind words on our WIR anniversary page. You'll see I've added a couple of "historic" photos of you there. You might like to add some yourself, perhaps in connection with the many successful events you have managed to put together over the years. Good to see you are still adding a woman's biography each day. I'm now devoting more time to helping newcomers and encouraging other contributors to join the project. You'll see from our recent new members lists that I have been pretty successful over the past few months but it would be great to have more general support. Active new contributors from all walks of life are needed to ensure the continuation of our success to date.--Ipigott (talk) 09:07, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

Women in Red 8th Anniversary | |
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |

Hello dear Victuallers, i just want to let you know about the conversation[4] with Andy and my attempt for a projectupdate[5] on the german project. If you wonder how i came to write you? I came across you helpful action there.[6] In case you feel or like to give us some hints in de:Wikipedia Diskussion:QRpedia your'e highly welcome. Best --Tom (talk) 11:47, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
I agree with your summary Tom (and Andy's). Wikimedia UK were in my opinion risk-averse rather than opportunity-aware but to be fair its the membership who could drive this. I was involved with about a dozen projects (see map) and I had ideas for how to create a QRpedia 2.0 but it would require a funded project to launch it. When QRpedia was gifted to WMUK then it was given the use of free consultants for a year and it undertook to keep it running forever. I'm sure they would support a re-launch (if a fire of enthusiasm began). Roger aka Victuallers Victuallers (talk) 12:28, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks for your quick response, your expertise and advices dear Victuallers!
Your experiences with Wiki-Towns and the idea concerning a relaunch of QRpedia 2.0 are very inspiring. In fact, the project was not particularly commendably supported by WMUK. That may also have been due to the fact that there were some dissonances in 2012. We should try to make the best of it and work to secure the future operation and continued existence. At least the technical support and the secure server operation shouldn't really cause any difficulties, because there should be enough money available for it. It would be very embarrassing and damaging for Wikipedia if existing installations in museums suddenly stopped working. The operators of museums and other cultural institutions would also be harmed and would lose trust in Wikipedia. So there are very good reasons to support and expand the QR-Pedia and these installations. It is deplorable that so far this has not received the necessary professional support. We will try to do better together in the future.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted ((copied)) template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you.
You have used many edit summaries like "new stub based on refs given, en:Elizabeth Montagu, en:A Father's Legacy to His Daughters and wikidata", which doesn't make it clear at all that you actually copied text directly from these articles (after all, you didn't copy text from the sources in most cases, nor from Wikidata, so why would it be different for the enwiki articles mentioned?). Please follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and preferably note such copies at the talk page as well. Fram (talk) 14:15, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Whack! You've been whacked with a wet trout. Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly. |

Thanks for uploading File:Loretta Thompson-Glickman.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. —holly {chat} 00:13, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi Victuallers, Saw your work (of course) on Helen Wilson Fell, who is a member, by birth and marriage, of two very remarkable families of Scottish immigrants to Australia. I saw too your personal aim of 250 articles on notable women, and am full of admiration that you are doing such a great job increasing the number of Wikipedia articles on notable women. Although I myself don't usually work in that space, I fully support the objective. Just for your interest, I did write one article on a remarkable woman, Dot Butler. Hopefully, it has contributed to your group's aims!
Good luck too with the 'deletionists'; I have come across this problem myself and am amazed at some attempts to delete articles as 'non-notable'. (Look at what they did with this one, The Bush Club, after I had tried to address earlier (2017) criticisms ot the article.) I see articles all the time that to me personally are 'non-notable' (reams of stuff on episodes of soap operas or Netflix series, etc.), However, if an article is of interest to any 'third party' person, then there has to be a good reason to 'delete' it; Wikipedia is a knowledge base covering a literally encyclopedic range of topics. I do work myself in the area of obscure topics; subject matter that has been forgotten or is on the verge of being forgotten in the public's mind, but to me these subjects are 'notable'. Articles on women and groups of women seem to be particularly vulnerable to action by 'deletionists', and it could just be another passive-aggressive power trip for grumpy (old or young) men. Anyway, best wishes for your valuable work.TrimmerinWiki (talk) 00:22, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
I noticed that there was a mix of dates on the article. Some were "month day, year" and other "day month year". I changed them ll to "day month year" because I think that is the Australian format. Hope that's OK. You might want to check the links for Indigenous Australians as I'm not completely sure which is the correct usage. Cheers.

There isn't a rule that everything in draft invariably always has to go through the WP:AFC process in all instances; there can sometimes be instances where draft space is used for other reasons besides the AFC process per se. But if the creator has formally submitted the page to the review queue, then they can't just bypass that review by moving the page into mainspace while it still has a yellow "waiting for review" template on it. A page can be either moved to mainspace or submitted for AFC review, but not both at the same time. Bearcat (talk) 15:14, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

I noticed your annotation (??? who?) on the list of Aussie women that you are currently working through. The list was originally created by The Drover's Wife who included a number of women who do not have entries in the ADB, because they may still be alive or have died recently. ADB is working on 1996–2000 deaths at the moment. Oronsay (talk) 18:27, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
